LEAKE . MANAGER Business Staff Associate Manager Frank Loggan Day Editor This Issue Emily Houston Night Editor This Issue Cliff Wilson Assistant .Tom Graham Think It Over C PEAK TNG in general terms, there are three sides to a stu dent’s life in the University. These may he called the schol astic, the activity, and the social, sides. The ideal of many students entering the University is to have an interest in each of these. Some may have a plan of so dividing the available time among them, in a certain pro portion. A student who has spent four years in college and has de voted a certain amount of interest and energy to each of these three sides should be well-qualified for realizing the most from his education and he should be. better able to repay the state for enabling him to procure that education. He will do this by being an “all around” man, intellectually competent, effec tive iin his business, or professional work, and socially valuable. During the freshman year, such a student may have some part in a class activity, or a minor place on one or two commit tees. By conscientious work, and dependability when charged with a responsibility, his classmates, or the committee heads will come to consider this type of person as a “good one to “put on” a committee, or to be elected to some campus politi cal office. "When there is a bit of work to be accomplished, the head of the class, or the committee head, or what not, in consulting the Oregana pages for help in selecting material, will run across one of these students and say, “Oh, yes. There’s Dohn Joe. He’s a good worker and is dependable. I’ll put him in charge of that work.” Some time later, some other head of activity will need some help, and he will consult the Oregana pages for inspiration to fill his committee, and will run across the picture of Dohn Joe, and say, “Oh, yes. There’s Dohn Joe. He’s a good worker and is dependable. I’ll put him in charge of that work.” And some time later, still another head of activity will need a competent bit of help, and a similar scene with the Oregana will be enacted, and Dolin Joe will have another job. lie may hesitate a bit about accepting it, but then, “It’s not much of a job, you know.” “Well, yes, I’ll do it. Sure, that’s all rght.” One day, when near the end of his four years, he will think of bis plan of freshman days and he will take stock of himself, and he will be rather startled. He will find that the propor tions he had worked out for studying, for activities, and for social interest, have become sadly wrenched and “lop-sided.” He will find that accumulation of many small activities, plus one or two major positions, has consumed a great deal more time and energy and interest than he had ever planned he would devote to that side of college life. One of the things that may jar him into remembering his ideal plan of freshman days is the scandal sheet. His grades may be perilously low, and he may be “eligible” for member ship on the probation list. He will realize then that he has lost something that he can not regain. lit* has lost a great deal of time that could have been spent to far better advantage in intellectual work. He would be far richer if lie had limited his activity “side to one particular line of work and refused absolutely t,o assume the multitude of small, but time and energy killing, “activ ities.” Little time is left for him to remedy the error. The number of days are few that he may continue in the University environment, Dolin Joe makes a wild scramble to resign from “this and that,” and he spends the remaining college days in study and thought, lie is a wiser man. And he believes others should profit by his mistake. He meets Jonathan Smith on the campus. Smith is a sopho more and is rated “a good worker and dependable. lie is one of the type to “put in charge of that work.” Dolin Joe “congratulates” Johnathan Smith on his latest appointment. Smith is happy over the recent “honor and is grateful for the good wishes. As he turns to go Dolin Joe calls him back and tells Smith the sad lesson he has learned. He advises Smith to think it over. Johnathan nods his head, and agrees, “That s right. It s worth thinking about." But later in the evening Johnathan Smith answers the Telephone. —“Well, 1 don’t know whether 1 bad better accept or not. — No, of course it isn’t much extra to do. — Well, yes. 1 11 do it. _ No, No.-. That’s all right.-Sure, I’ll do it.” Campus Bulletin Notices will be printed in this column for two issues only.

O---<t> COMPARISON OF CULTURES t Harried and harrassed, the ex ponents of true and undiluted cul ture in our colleges have turned at last to government for aid. The solemn and sovereign legislature of Massachusetts has been importuned to investigate the administration of Harvard university “to decide whether true culture is being crushed out by big business.” We extended across the miles the hand of sympathy to Representa tive Blanchard whose vast concern for the future of culture Sent him crying to the broad shoulder of the legislature. Tf the legislature of Massachusetts is like the legisla ture of most other states, we pre dict that the birthplace of shelf education will come through the or deal with flying colors, that its “culture” will have soon the pom- j positv of legal sanction. Tt so happens that the brand of culture dispensed at Harvard iust now bears a dollar sign for a trade ! more than an entire yearly budget for this University—has recently! mark. Five millions of dollars—I been thrown into a grand, stupen dous, magnificent and monumental i School of Business at dear old Har vard. At the same time dear old Har vard has lost one of its most val uable cultural possessions, the “47 workshop.” For while dear old TTar vard was scouting around to find rhe five million, a little school down in New Haven called Tale. Coolly told Professor George Baker, found er and developer of the Workshop that although it did not have five million to spend to tench boys and girls to run factories, it did have one million for a department of dramatic art if he would change his place of residence. He did. There is a comparison of ideals. We agree with Representative Blanchard, “Something ought to b*1 done about it.”—Ohio State Lan | tern. DR. ALFRED TINGLE TAKES POSITION IN CANADA Ur.

Sfte ©regatta Wrigley and the Engine Many retailers have stocked merchandise that was supposed to sell because of a flurry of adver tising to appear in local papers. The following story recently told of William Wrigley illustrates the continual effort necessary to keep goods before the public. While riding on a train Mr. Wrigley was told by a friend that his product was so widely known lie was wasting money by continually advertising. “If the engine were to be cut off from this train what would happent” asked Mr. Wrigley. “The train would coast for a while and then come to a stop.” “Exactly,” said Mr. Wrigley. “And if I should cut off advertising my business would coast for a while and then stop.” Don’t coast - Speed Up Advertise !
